Once Upon a Time: The build up in this track is great and the hit at 1:03 feels very epic, especially with the well-placed and well-balanced vocals. Even though the chord progression does not have much variation, you do a great job adding and subtracting elements that make it feel dynamic and make me want to listen to it over again!
Nightfall: This feels like such a hopeful track. I love that it builds up to such a big, yet cohesive sound with the glockenspiel, the viola, and the other instrument (I couldn’t decide if it was a dark oboe or something else like an English horn).The glockenspiel feels like stars sprinkling the night sky as day turns to night.
Starlight: Spitfire’s soft piano feels so mellow and other-worldly, which works so well here. I love the mallet instrument and the rising pattern with all the delay on it. The chords are so interesting and the uniqueness of the progression feels like discovery while listening which supports your intent.
An Empty Sky: This sounds like a pit and drumline performance which is super cool! I love the snare line accompanying the mallets early in the track. I am super impressed with all the sounds you were able to bring together so cohesively. The break at 4:42 feels so satisfying and is an excellent climax to such an epic track. Overall, great work teaming up for this jam and creating something that flows from one thing seamlessly into something else. Thank you both for sharing!
